✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Massive community trust (15,781 endorsements) — this is a must-have for UI tweakers.
- Over half a million downloads proves it's battle-tested and widely used.
- Simple, focused feature: zooming the minimap — does exactly what it says.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in March 2022 — may be outdated for the latest game patches.
- No detailed description provided, so you're flying blind on exact zoom controls or options.
- Only adds zoom — if you wanted other minimap improvements, this isn't it.
For players who find the default minimap too zoomed out and want a closer view of their immediate area. Perfect for exploration-heavy playthroughs or anyone who likes to keep an eye on nearby details. Skip if you're happy with the vanilla minimap or need more comprehensive UI overhauls.

- Check if the mod requires a specific game version — since it's from 2022, verify compatibility with your current build.
- If you use a mod manager, install it through that for easy removal if issues arise.
- Test the zoom in a safe area first to see how it affects your gameplay view.
